Formalisation of Human's Mind: Towards Orthodox Machinations


What if I suggest you a method to judge your day. For no monetary criteria suits the definion of success, neither any sort of distribution of power defines what it means to be a meaningful life. Modernity has already brought formalisation of human minds which are concerned with triviality of procedural wisdom. The "Agentic State" (Stanley Milgram, Obedience) of human mind is concerned to follow what is written or what is directed than what is relevant in any given condition. The "Society of Control" (Deleuze and Guattary) has reduced human agency into the state of algorithmic wisdom, a Matrix is running on where it has become an impossible task to decipher what is real or naturally driven and what is fictitious reality. Market ethics has already established a set of institutions, including juridical formations of State and other social and political institutions, coupled with enfeebling human's capabilities to think and create, have denounced human society with shameful ideological impoverishment. Knowledge creation has become a tool to create quite a few machines for certain other extraneous purposes. Justice and ethical contours of it has been stripped from its ethical content, and a market oriented necessity has transformed its semantics to merely an institution which is concerned more about market order than justice in substantial way. Be it university, hospital, or any government- private office documents are more lively than humans. Here concern is not about action but the fear of action, consequences of action. The formal mind is less acceptable to change. It can receive what is already inculcated through market ethics. Humans emancipation is not visible from the distance I can see. Only the birth of substantive reason could restore us to peace and meaningful existence.

Human's Rationality: Its Unfree-Freedoms

Cosmic energy is moving into various forms and patterns, its quest is to become, what Arthur Schopenhauer called 'will to live'.  (Arthur Schopenhauer, 1818). He is explicit that: “Thus the will to live everywhere preys upon itself, and in different forms is its own nourishment, till finally the human race, because it subdues all the others, regards nature as a manufactory for its own use. Yet even the human race...reveals in itself with most terrible distinctness this conflict, this variance of the will with itself…”. Every ‘will to become' is a movement, encompassing the history of past and future; the degree of rationality and its gradation are normativized by thoughts as hierarchy of souls and monads. Human being as likeness and image of God possess the highest truth, indeed! In fact, human being is the only species who possess and owns the truth, it is the only mode of being who puts truth at stake, constructs its horizons and claim of legitimacy and illegitimacy, defi...

The Reciprocal Grounding of Freedom and Moral Law in Kant's Critique of Practical Reason

I Introduction: The Problem of Transcendental Freedom In Immanuel Kant's practical philosophy, transcendental freedom and the moral law are established not as independent concepts but as reciprocally determinant principles. This blog examines the central thesis of the Critique of Practical Reason, which posits that the moral law serves as the ratio cognoscendi (the reason for knowing) of freedom, while freedom is the ratio essendi (the reason for being) of the moral law. We become aware of our freedom only because we are first conscious of the moral law as an unconditional command; the "ought" reveals the "can." Conversely, the moral law itself could not exist as a binding principle were freedom not a real property of the will. Through a critical analysis of Kant’s text, this paper traces his argument from the rejection of all empirical moral theories to the establishment of a purely formal law, known as a "fact of reason." This analysis reveals how Ka...

The Physical Basis of Conscious Life: A Synthesis of William James's Physiological Psychology

I Introduction: Bridging Physiology and Psychology William James, in his landmark work The Principles of Psychology, provides a foundational framework connecting the brain's physiological mechanisms to the purposive, selective, and unified nature of conscious mental life. This blog analyzes James’s synthesis, which grounds psychological phenomena in the material workings of the nervous system without reducing consciousness to a mere epiphenomenon. We will explore his hierarchical model of the brain, which evolves from simple reflex actions in the lower nerve centers to the complex, deliberative functions of the cerebrum. Key themes include the role of the cerebrum as an organ of foresight and prudence, the physiological mechanism of habit as the process by which experience physically imprints itself upon the brain’s plastic matter, and consciousness's essential function as a “selecting agency” that is causally efficacious in steering the organism toward its own interests. Ultim...
